To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Ohio Open Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

1. Current officers with the total amount of complaints against them during their time as a police officer.

2. The report of each of complaint.

3. The result/outcome of each complaint.

Please only include statistics reflecting the number of internal/departmental complaints, not civilian complaints.

I am a journalist for Matter News, a nonprofit news organization located in Columbus, and would like any fees waived if possible.

Kathy,

I apologize for any confusion. I did indeed make two separate requests, but the wording was very similar so I can see how it was easily looked over.

My first request was for:
"Please only include statistics reflecting the number of ***civilian complaints, not internal/departmental complaints.***

I have received it, thank you very much. This second request is:
"Please only include statistics reflecting the number of ***internal/departmental complaints, not civilian complaints.***

I was trying to separate civilian and internal complaints.

Sorry again for the confusion.

Sincerely,
Morgan Landis

From: Columbus Division of Police
